Rocky's been let out of his cage every morning, even if we're both leaving for work, since he moved in over three years ago, but the last couple of months, he's decided to "rampage," as Hubby calls it, unless he's supervised. So rather than leave him locked up all day long, I set up folding wooden chairs around his cage as a barrier. He's terrified of those chairs for some reason, and he won't go near them, so he can be out and play on top of his cage or on his playstand, but the chairs keep him from rampaging through the rest of the house. Every morning before I leave, I set up the chairs and every morning, he scurries to the furthest corner of his cage with crest and wings up. I open his door and he scrambles out of the cage and goes to a corner on top of it. I'm sure this will only work so long before he'll get brave, but for now it works. He has a giant cage and personally, I think he'd be fine locked up, but he's always hard to get along with in the evening if he's been locked up all day. He gets chompy and testy and difficult. When this stops working, we'll have to come up with something else.
